Types of sexual reproduction in bacteria include conjugation (plasmid transfer via sex pilus), transduction (via viral infection), and transformation (uptake of free DNA).
Los tipos de reproducción sexual en bacterias son conjugación (transferencia de plásmido por pilus), transducción (a través de virus) y transformación (captación de ADN libre).
| Front | Types of sexual reproduction in bacteria explain |
|---|---|
| Back | Conjugation: sex pilus/conjugating bridge joins the bacteria and a plasmid is transferred Transduction: through viral infection Transformation: fragments of DNA released by a dying or rapidly reproducing bacterium are taken up by another bacteria by diffusion. |
